Just curious how many Indian owers were on this list and what they ride or keep in baskets. I'll start this off I have a 741with a blower a 40 Sport Scout and most of a 45 flat tracker in a basketDusty

Uh,..I'm only 'halfsies'on a '34 Chief, and I'll never finish the basket as long as I must pay the bills by cutting metal on other people's projects. (Actually I'm down to simple stuff like updating the sump pick up {?})...Cotten

The 741 with blower is an on going project still in the mule phase. The supercharger sets where the generator used to and is chain driven through a jackshaft to get the blower over drive that I needed. I'm using the original M741 Linkert modifyed for blow through operation. The original design used pressure from the manifold to pressureise the fuel tanks, but it would run out of fuel on acceleration so I am in the process of adding a electric pump and regulator. Hope I can retain the Linkert but may have to use something else.Maybe even inject it. RedFred: If you mean that you have 640 stuff for sale write me off list clements@la-tierra.comDusty

Wilfit:If your 41 engine has the correct square base cylinders and heads it won't go in a frame earlier than 1940 without grinding a substantal amount of fin off the heads and cylinders. Also the transmission will have the wrong length output shaft. The moto plane frame was Indians first attempt at a light frame for the 45 and wasn't strong enough. But both of these are good trading material. If you decide to grind the fins find a 640 Scout 640b millitary Scout or 741 military rear section. We should have a blue print of a 640 Scout rear section on the blue print project of the Virtual Indian next month or the month after. There's a 640 fork print this month. For a manual I would suggest one of the reprints of the 640b millitary manual.Are you going to leave it stock or stroke it? Dusty

Dusty, I found that I have 39 cylinders & they ground the 41 heads to match. Found a few more pieces in my swap meet pile today. If this keeps up I may end up with enough parts to get started. Got a NOS 39 SS tail light today, only I haven't paid for it yet. what would be a fair price?Later, Wifit

HII'VE GOT A 47 BASKET THAT'S ABOUT 95% DONE.JUST GOT THE TANKS BACK FROM THE PAINT SHOP(TWO TONE BLUE & WHITE). DOING THE TOP END TODAY, HOPE TO BE RIDING IN WEEKS(END OF A 7 YEAR REBUILD PROJECT. YEA! CLIFF J
